On the Eastern Front… Near Leningrad, Soviet forces capture Pushkin and Pashovsk and cut the Narva-Krasnogvardeisk rail line. In the south, the Soviet 1st and 2nd Ukrainian Front launch a pincer attack to encircle and destroy the Korsun-Sevchenovsky salient held by forces of German 1st Panzer Army (part of Army Group South). The pincers are intended to converge at Zvenigorodka.

In Italy… The Anzio beachhead continues to expand, albeit, slowly. To the south, along the German defenses of the Gustav Line, the Free French Corps (part of US 5th Army) attacks Monte Santa Croce. The US 2nd Corps (also part of 5th Army) continues attacking over the Rapido River, toward Caira.
